Ineligible. A new nomination can be made if the article passes GA.
... that King Mohnyin Thado of Ava responded to the troubles of his kingdom by recalibrating the Burmese calendar to year 2? Source: (Aung-Thwin 2017: 88), (Harvey 1925: 99), (Hmannan Vol. 2 2003: 75)
ALT1: ... that King Mohnyin Thado of Ava spent much of the royal treasury on constructing 27 religious building projects instead of addressing the widespread rebellions in the kingdom? Source: (Aung-Thwin 2017: 88); The 27 projects are listed in the standard chronicles: (Maha Yazawin Vol. 2 2006: 71), (Yazawin Thit Vol. 1 2012: 281–282) and (Hmannan Vol. 2 2003: 75–76)
Overall: The article is new enough, long enough, neutral, and no copyvio is detected. The hook is cited and interesting. A QPQ has been done. Either hook looks fine to me.@Hybernator: the article has not been promoted to GA status yet. Htanaungg (talk) 02:07, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
Hi @Htanaungg:, thanks for reviewing the article. I expanded the article on December 20th, and nominated on the 25th. That's within the 7-day period, isn't it? Hybernator (talk) 00:59, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
But, Hybernator, the DYKCheck keeps saying "Article has not been created or expanded 5x or promoted to Good Article within the past 10 days". The revision before you expanded had 7299 characters, and the current version has 26886 characters. So it is assumed that the article has not been 5x expanded yet.

I see. According to the criteria list, "Was the article created, expanded (5x), moved to mainspace, or promoted to Good Article status within 7 days of the nomination?", 5x expansion isn't the sole criterion for newness. It could also be "promoted to Good Article status within 7 days of the nomination", which I'm seeking for this article. So, you'll probably need to go through the GA nomination criteria, as opposed to normal DYK ones. We may need to double check with other DYK admins. Thanks.

Sure, Hybernator, pls go ahead GA nomination. Once the article is listed as a GA, I'm happy to re-review this DYK nomination again. Thanks. Htanaungg (talk) 06:32, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
To confirm, Hybernator, Htanaungg, the article is not currently eligible for DYK as the expansion was about 3.7x, less than the 5x required (which would have been to 36495 prose characters, not 26886); nearly 10000 short. (It was nominated five days after the expansion, but it needs to be within seven days and a fivefold expansion, and it didn't achieve the latter.) It has two chances at eligibility: a further expansion over the next several days to 36495 prose characters, or to be nominated to be a GA and be approved there. Best of luck.
